I want to be excited, I love that game but..... Worried they will over simplify it and ruin it.

They just do not make games like that anymore :(

I'd actually prefer for them to relaunch the original with today's graphics etc on mac/pc

Well that's the best part of it all they're just remaking the original to work on the iPad by just keeping everything else the same but I'm adding out better interface but the graphics and story and everything else is exactly the same as it was in 1998 so yeah that's playthings that said about

Many games should never be resurrected, I warn you!

Ive had many old nostalgic games that Ive tried to go back to, only to have my memories stripped away when I launch the thing and the pixelated mess slices my eyeballs and I discover the elementary gameplay is a shallow bore-fest.

Best to live in nostalgic fantasy land :)

Ugly and shallow are not the words that come to mind when discussing Baldur's Gate! In fact, I'd say the detailed 2d art of the series has aged substantially better than their more "advanced" contemporaries. Very excited to see how this pans out, and it would be great if this signaled a trend of PC classics getting a new lease on life! They sure don't make them like they used to.

This game will be cool, but I still would take Diablo 2 on the iPad with battle.net multiplayer any day.
